The Best Cookies

This weekend it was a milestone birthday for my Granny and I was given the job of making a dessert. I was looking through my Tanya Burr Bakes recipe book and found Sated Nutella Cookies. They sounded absolutely delicious so I started making them immediately. Mine turned out pretty good and they seemed to go down very well at the party and taste amazing. They are thine and crunchy and very tasty...
Here is the recipe:-

Ingredients:
- 200g Unsalted Butter, Softened
- 300g Caster Sugar
- 1 Large Egg
- 325g Self-Raising Flour
- 1 Teaspoon Sea Salt flakes+ extra for sprinkling

Method:

1. Preheat Oven to 180 degrees Celsius/ 350 degrees Fahrenheit/ Gas Mark 4.
2. Line two baking trays with greaseproof paper.
3. In a large mixing bowl cram together butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Mix in the egg until combined.
5. Gradually, add the flour ad salt and mix until a dough forms.
6. Add the Nutella by gently marbling through the dough using a spoon or palette knife.
7. Divide the dough using an ice cream scoop and place each ball spaced apart from each other on the baking tray.
8. gently squash them down with your fingers or a back of a spoon and sprinkle a little bit of salt on each.
9. Then cook for 12 minutes- or until golden brown.
10. Transfer the cookies to a wire rack and leave to cool and set for 20 minutes before eating.

I found that whilst my cookies were in the oven they were "inflating" so when this happened I simply opened up the oven had got the same spoon and gently pushed them back down again and that seemed to work.
